Abstract:
A clustered Nb-drug conjugate (cNDC@PEG) was designed using anti-EGFR Nb to specifically deliver Pt(iv) prodrugs to tumors. cNDC@PEG efficiently targets EGFR positive tumor cells, and the clustered cNDC@PEG is more efficient in inhibiting tumor growth in vivo than the monomeric NDC. This work provides a novel strategy for the construction of a multi-valent NDC using dendrimers.
